BUILDER Clark Contracts has secured £10 million worth of new work in the opening weeks of this year.
Its fit-out division is working on two office revamps for IBM UK in Edinburgh as well as the new site for business analytics software firm SAS at the Cuprum building in Glasgow.
Having recently completed a refurbishment of Kirkgate House in Aberdeen for Land Securities, the Clark Contracts team was asked to take on a fit-out there by civil engineer Atkins.
The company's west coast division is building workshop units in Irvine as well as upgrading the Tay House office block in central Glasgow.
On the east coast, Clark Contracts is working for St Andrews University to create new research laboratories, workshops and storage areas for the school of geography and geosciences.
Meanwhile the small works division is involved in projects for two Edinburgh University buildings and the Dumfries & Galloway College centre for renewable energy and sustainable technology. It is also involved in refurbishments for Rank casinos in Glasgow and contracts with Police Scotland in Ayrshire.
Steve Clark, executive chairman of Clark Contracts, said: "It's always great to get the New Year off to a flying start and we are very determined to maintain the momentum throughout 2014.
"It is especially pleasing that the new work has been secured across the whole country, with both our construction divisions, covering the west and east of Scotland, attracting work on significant new, high-profile projects.
"We have also now secured three major contracts in Aberdeen and believe there is lots more potential to win more work there this year."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
